Give Us A Try
Our mission is to help you connect your buyer with the most excellent Mortgage Brokers and Lenders — increasing the odds that your sale closes and you earn your agent commission. And as a bonus/perk, you get $100 upfront for every referral — so no lead goes to waste.
It's very costly if you don't get your buyer several mortgage quotes. The CFPB reports interest rates from lenders vary by 0.50% or more, costing over $29,000 on a $300,000 loan. And if the Broker or Lender doesn't move quickly the buyer could lose out. That's where we come in.
Why We're Better Than Using A "Broker You Know"
Just The Basics:
A. You Stay in Full Control, With Full Transparency
Everything is tracked in your Go Fish Admin Panel, and you can communicate with the brokers or lenders that received your referral anytime. The referral submission process takes no more than 30 seconds for each referral.
B. It’s Fully Compliant & Anonymous
The platform is "fully" RESPA complaint. Also, brokers and lenders can’t mention GFO or the $100 payment to your buyer. The broker/lender only tells the buyer that they were referred by you and they're "here to help."
Beyond The Basics: Why We're Elite
1. Intelligent Matching Assistance: Brokers & Lenders Who Are Specialized For Your Buyer
At Go Fish, referrals aren’t randomly assigned like other places, our system assists the RE Agent to intelligently match their buyer to the most elite broker or lender for each buyer’s unique needs.
RE Agents start by setting filters based on their preferences, such as choosing that their referral will go to either a Broker or a Lender. Then, they answer a few simple multiple choice questions about their buyer, and the platform instantly cross-checks those answers against each broker’s/lender's specialties, narrowing the list in real time and showing the RE Agent detailed profiles of the pool of results — including their name, website, a short “about us” summary, and more. Finally, the RE Agent can then omit any they would prefer not to receive the referral — leaving their select "preferred pool" of possible recipients.
2. Elite Performance Vetting
On top of that, with Go Fish, brokers and lenders are constantly measured and monitored based on actual performance data:
- High Approval Rate
- Speed & Responsiveness
- Follows Up & Pushes Buyers
- Good & Professional Communication
- Wide Loan Program Options
- Protects the Agent Relationship
- Fair Rates & Fees
This Elite Performance Vetting ensures your buyer is more likely to get funded fast, and your sale is more likely to close.
3. You Dedicated Go Fish Account Manager Works For You So You Don’t Have To Rely on Broker Loyalty — Control the Outcome
If you refer a buyer to a mortgage broker directly, you lose visibility. Did they follow up? Did they act fast? Did they drop the ball and lose you the sale?
With Go Fish you know who was matched with the lead and you can reach out directly, but your Go Fish Account Manager works for you and can also step in for you. This means you can escalate issues to your account manager if you need help, if something went wrong, the broker isn’t performing, or you need to speed things up.
4. You Get Paid Every Time — Whether It Closes or Not
When you refer directly to a mortgage broker, you typically get nothing in return unless the deal closes — and even then, often nothing from the Broker. With Go Fish, you get $100 upfront for every referral, even if the loan doesn’t close, and the Broker is invested in the lead and working with you to close. If you wish, you can give that $100 to your buyer for a nice steak dinner that they will remember came from you.
5. Future-Proof Your Business
Today’s home buyers expect multiple quotes, speed, and clarity. The old model — hand a lead to your “preferred guy” and hope — doesn’t scale. Go Fish ensures buyers get competitive options from elite brokers, which improves their experience, builds your credibility, and increases repeat/referral business.
Summary:
In short, Go Fish Originators works for you, protects your buyer relationship, and boosts your odds of closing the sale — while you stay in full control. Sending referrals directly to a mortgage broker doesn’t do any of that.
Bottom Line:
It’s Not About $100 — It’s About Control, Closings & Commission.
Giving a free referral is being helpful.
Using Go Fish is being smart.
Our RE Agent Related Policies:
- We never communicate with your home buyer unless you "explicitly" ask your Go Fish account manager to do so.
- All data is protected and never sold, ever.
- Your buyer is never told about us (GFO). As a strict policy, Brokers and Lenders are prohibited from disclosing GFO’s involvement, including the $100 fee per referral. Instead, they can freely inform the home buyer that they were referred by their RE Agent and they are "here to help."

The true goal of Go Fish Originators is to help you—the Mortgage Broker—and the Real Estate Agent successfully close more mortgage deals, not just send you leads.
This solution is for individuals (such as individual brokers or individual loan officers) or entire companies. Every referral comes from a real estate agent who wants their deal to close, so you both win by working together and helping each other: they earn their 1.5%-3.0% agent commission, and you earn your 2%-3% broker fee. The $100 paid to agents is just a perk to ensure no lead goes to waste. What really matters is getting borrowers pre-qualified and across the finish line.
How It Works:
To help you, you are assigned a dedicated Go Fish Account Manager (which works for you) to be there at all times to help you.
You can customize your referral preferences to receive only the leads that match your criteria—such as geographic location, loan types you offer, the buyer’s desired loan type, mortgage amount, buyer motivation, and more. Referrals that match your settings will be sent to the email address on your account, and you can also view them anytime by logging into your Go Fish Admin Panel.
Policies:
1. Active Lead Guarantee Policy
We require RE Agents to send referrals of home buyers that are actively seeking to purchase a home and have done so within the past 45 days. If you determine that a lead does not meet this criteria, appears to have no value, or may be falsified, please notify us promptly. Timely notice allows us to deactivate the lead and ensure you are not charged for it.
2. Involvement Disclosure Policy
As a Broker or Lender you are kindly prohibited from revealing our (GFOs) involvement, including the $100 fee per referral. Instead, you can freely inform the home buyer that they were referred to you by their RE Agent and you are "here to help."
3. Quality Assurance Policy
As a Broker or Lender on our platform, you are continually vetted and monitored to ensure that buyers receive exceptional service and the best possible chance of approval.
